    Michigan changes rules for Antique / Historic cars

    Haggerty has a story about a recent change to Michigan's rules on driving a car with historic license plates, or (I guess) otherwise registered as a "historic" vehicle. Michigan's laws were similar to Ontario (Canada) where if you register your car as historic, it severely limits how much and...

    Question about buying / sending USPS money orders

    There are some people selling stuff that only want to deal with payment via USPS money orders. Can this Canadian get an explanation as to how this is done if I'm making a quick trip to the US? I understand that a MO can be bought at a post office or a kiosk. The hours at a post office are...

    I'm 10 miles north of the total ecplise zone, it's going to be a traffic zoo around here as people head to Port Stanley and the beach on the Lake Erie north shore to be well into the zone. It it's going to be anything like today (wall to wall sunshine) then a lot of people are going to be...

    Is this an OK way to reinforce a front sub-frame?

    My plan is to replace the front subframe in my '67 Monaco with this one: I'm showing here the underside rear passenger side. I would of course clean this frame up and paint it, but I want to go further. I want to form this out of 3/16 plate steel: And weld it to the frame: Here's...

    Pitman arm - how is it named in parts manuals, was it the same from '6x to '73?

    I'm looking through various years of the parts manuals and I could totally be missing it but I don't see the term "pitman arm" being used. I do see "Steering Link Gear Arm". Is that the pitman arm? They don't show the arm itself in the exploded diagrams of the steering gear. Is it the case...

    2.75 vs 3 inch front brake shoe conversion - same spindle?

    Was the 2.75" front shoe the standard size for all non-wagon, non-440 C-bodies from '65 right up to when disk brakes became standard? I imagine that police or taxi or otherwise a "heavy duty" brake option would have given you the 3" drums? I see some 3" drums on rockauto that are indicated as...

    Why was there a motor-mount change from '65 to '66 ?

    The 1965 Plymouth service manual is the only '65 manual I can find that shows frame dimensions. I compare the 1965 Fury diagram with 1967. Since Fury had slant-6 and V-8 options for both years, I'm comparing the V-8 diagrams only. The 1966 Chrysler and Monaco frame diagrams matches the...

    Looking for small block (318 if it matters) LA 2-bbl throttle cable bracket. 1968 to 197? time frame I guess. This is what I have now: This bracket has worked for a long time but the end of the shaft is too close to the valve cover so I'd like to get the correct bracket. I think this one...

    Question about lower control arm and torsion bar

    How does this shaft get removed from the lower arm? Do I just pound it out from the other side? This shaft, the visible part in the photo, that runs through the frame, I assume it does not move or rotate? I was sort of wondering if it did, why no grease fitting. But I guess it doesn't...
